ODRADEK Rover

A mobile aerostatic radar platform that makes the subsurface visible.

Deployed in under 30 minutes.

The aerostatic balloon lifts the sensing payload from the vehicle, unspooling a tether that carries power and data up to 200 m of operating altitude.

Signal transmission and beamforming.

The horizontal Tx array electronically steers and shapes the beam across 360° of azimuth to illuminate the target area.

Subsurface interaction.

The signal penetrates the ground and meets layers, cavities and buried objects. Each contrast sends back its own echo, shaped by soil, moisture and depth.

Precision at scale.

Up to 10 m Penetration depth, depending on soil conditions
1 km²/day A mobile ground unit that redeploys footprint after footprint, on any terrain a vehicle reaches
3D Volumetric reconstruction of the subsurface, not a single profile
0.1 – 1 m Vertical resolution · 0.25 – 2 m horizontal

Operational Modes

Deploy. Acquire.Relocate. Repeat.Until the area is covered.

Deploy

The aerostat lifts the Tx/Rx array above the ground unit.

Imaging Capabilities

Multistatic sounding designed for actionable subsurface intelligence.

One radar capture, read differently depending on what's being asked of the ground.

Energy & Utilities

  • Pipeline & water-main leakageMoisture fronts around a buried line flag a leak before it reaches the surface.
  • Buried utility mappingPipes, cables and ducts located and depth-tagged ahead of excavation.

Infrastructure

  • Voids & subsidenceCavities and settlement beneath roads, rail and embankments, tracked survey to survey.
  • Scour & erosionMaterial loss around foundations and buried structures, followed over time.

Mining & Geotechnics

  • Ground before the buildStratigraphy and buried obstructions characterised before foundations are designed.
  • GeohazardsThe body of a landslide and unstable ground mapped at depth, not inferred from the surface.

Environment

  • Contamination extentSubsurface contamination bounded from above, without a drilling grid.

Defense

  • UXO & landmine detectionBuried ordnance located from the air, before anyone moves across the ground.
